I like Garak and I want to watch some episodes with Garak in them but I've only been through DS9 once so I can't remember what episodes have good Garak centric stories. Season and Episode numbers are more logical to me than episode names. Thanks

I don't see the appeal personally. What is so interesting about a simple tailor?
Well he was also a gardener
Paramount should do a series. The Gardeners of Star Trek. They just follow Boothby, and Garak around the grounds they maintain. There's probably a good story about gardeners on Risa.
It would be the first trek series with no Vulcans. Or maybe every so often they cut to some random Vulcan just standing in the desert.
Nothing at all. Now, would you like to buy a suit? At 20:55 -- exactly.
All of them, Andy Robinson is amazing in all his episodes.
Can not agree more.
Already mentioned, but I love "Our Man Bashir". It's a comedy episode, and it's fun to see a cold-blooded spy like Garak react to 20th century spy fiction tropes.
Good suggestion, I just watched it. A classic broken holosdeck episode. Do they ever work properly, lol. Rom is a legend.
I liked that a spatula was involved in keeping the holosuite machinery running.
I suppose "Take Me Out to the Holosuite" doesn't have any technical issues, but it's certainly the exception to the rule.
Hey, if you like Garak, be sure to pick up a copy of “A Stitch in Time” by Andrew Robinson who played Garak. The book gives Elim’s entire backstory and it’s really well written and just a great story.
There’s lots of great Garak episodes but In the Pale Moonlight is probably as quintessential as it’s gets.
The first duty of every Starfleet officer is to the truth. Whether it's scientific truth, or historical truth, or personal truth. It is the guiding principle upon which Starfleet is based. If you can't find it within yourself to stand up and tell the truth about what happened you don't deserve to wear that uniform.

The following are either very Garak focused or have him in a prominent role. Probably not an exhaustive list, but this is what came to mind and memory alpha was good enough to remind me of the episode titles.
Looking back I'm surprised how sparsely he appeared, he seemed more present because he's one of my favorite characters.
There are a lot more episodes he's in, and I may be forgetting others that focus on him. These are just a list where the story revolves around Garak or a group that includes Garak.
He’s in way more than that, but he’s still in less than 20% of Deep Space 9’s episodes overall.
Edit: Deep Space 9 had 176 episodes. Garak was only in 33 of them.
Things Past is S5E8.
Cheers! Fixed it
Thanks that will help heaps. I just can't remember because I binged DS9 over a few months. I re-watched s7e23-24 (The dogs of war and What you leave behind) last night and, yeah, I need more Garak.
